Madeline Lewis: When I first saw the video I did think it was funny and I did laugh at the actions of the boy but it wasn’t until I read the story behind the video that it really wasn’t funny. What those kids did to Ghyslain was low and hurtful and caused him much emotional damage, fair enough Ghyslain should of been more careful with his private video but there was no need for those kids to post it on the internet without any permission.
The kids responsible for this should be the ones suffering not the parents by having to fork out all this money for the law suit, the parents can’t control what the children do at school this incident happened on school grounds so it should have been dealt with there and then.

DAVID: My own belief on the “star wars kid” is that it was his own fault that his video was found and posted, because he was using school property and then left the tape lying around. If he didn’t want anyone to find the tape, he should have taken it home and uploaded the video on his own computer for his assignment and then delete the video. Along with this, I don’t believe that the students and their families should not of been forced to pay $300,000 for this little school prank. Once this video was found by the school, it should have been dealt with at the school and the students at most, should of been suspended.
MADELINE (3.52 pm): I agree david but those kids should of known better then to put the video on the internet without permission they caused him alot of emotional damage, but yes i agree the parents shouldn't of had to pay all that many for the childish kids behaviour.
